Layering

9.04.2014

With fall quickly approaching I start thinking about layering. We start adding layers with what we wear, but I also like adding layers in my decor.

It isn't anywhere near cool enough here to start dressing in layers, but I have added a layer in the sitting room with this wonderful new rug from Rug Studio

Rug Studio contacted me a couple months ago asking if I would like to choose a new rug. I looked at their site and was impressed with how many great brands and choices they offered. Dash & Albert is a brand I have bought several times and I was thrilled to find this one that I have had my eye on for awhile. This is the new Bunny Williams line and y'all know I love plaid.

If it looks familiar to you it could be because of this runner I shared in my kitchen recently. See I told y'all I love plaid and this line.

I chose the oak color for this room and love how it looks. The rug was shipped quickly, too. I am not one who likes to wait. :)

The new plaid rug is not thick so I just layered it on top of the wool rug I already had down in here. This just adds a cozy layer for the upcoming cooler seasons. I ordered one size smaller than the original rug to purposely layer them.

I also swapped out the pillows again and there is one more change I made.

Your wool rug is one of my favorites! I love layering rugs too and have been thinking about using one of my smaller Turkish rugs over my jute rug for winter. Now that is awesome having a rug company send a rug to you:-) Is that Mr. Savvy's recliner??

Kim I just LOVE that runner in the kitchen and I will have to find one like that! Does it have a rubber back? Well I also wanted to let you know that I will be featuring your blog on Sunday Shout Outs so please stop by my blog then for a peek. Thanks :-)

We're thinking alike again Kim...I just ordered another jute rug to put under the Kilim one I have in my sitting room. I love your new rug and of course I spotted the other change...you added the corbels under your pictures ;-) very pretty!!

Your rug look beautiful. You took two of the pictures down and put up your new purchases. I love the way your room looks. That is what I have a problem with. I try to layer and somehow I don't know when to stop and instead of looking layered - it looks crowded.

Nice texture on those rugs, Kim. I'm thinking of putting a runner in front of my newly organized wall of tubs in the basement, lol. Is it the demijohn bottle on the floor that's new? The amber looks good against the layers on the floor. :)Rita

The new rug and the kitchen runner are both very pretty and add a special touch to the layering of Fall. I'm sure you will get cooler before we do here in AZ. At least we may get some rain and temps only in the 90's this weekend -- if the weather guessers have guessed correctly!

I do love how you've layered the 2 rugs in this room, and I knew that the gallery wall looked different but I could not put my finger on the change until I read some of the previous comments! Going to check out Rug Studio!

I love your new rugs - Dash and Albert always get it right. The gallery wall over your sofa is stunning. Love the way you did the antler mixed with the sconces and pictures…would have lost my mind trying to hang them!

I just love this room, it has always been one of my faves in your house! Love the layered rugs, the laid looks amazing over the other one! I may just have to go rug shopping now:) I also like the corbels under the pics, you have inspired me!
